So says the guy who is an expert on a book he hasn't read and doesn't plan to. But says all atheists should read it. You are a real Internet Expert (tm).

I'm really flattered that you rate me as an expert . .. but my modesty insists that you go back and read the OP. We realize that being an atheist, you are obviously brainy and most of the time you can understand everything completely just by reading an OP title, however this may not be "most of the time."

Nope. An Internet Expert(TM.) Internet Experts(TM) are quite distinct from experts. They are also generally good examples of the Dunning-Kruger effect; they read about something on the Internet (or perhaps even watch a Youtube video) and decide they are experts in their new field. Someone who does not read a book, then insists that others read it because it is authoritative on the subject of atheist's reliance on science, is a perfect example of this.

There is also a more advanced counterpart to such experts, who can discern the nature of OPs merely by reading thread titles, do book reviews on the strength of dust jackets (although they may skimp on the inner flap if it has more than 250 words), and so on.
